First Line: I would commune with Thee, my God,

I would commune with Thee, my God :
E'en to Thy seat I come :
I leave my joys, I leave my sins,
And seek in Thee my home.

2 I stand upon the mount of God,
With sunlight in my soul ;
I hear the storms in vales beneath,
I hear the thunders roll ;

3 But I am calm with Thee, my God,
Beneath these glorious skies ;
And to the height on which 1 stand,
Nor storms nor clouds can rise.

4 Oh, this is life ! Oh, this is joy,
My God, to find Thee so !
Thy face to see, Thy voice to hear,
And all Thy love to know !
